Getting started with

Getting started with Electricity consumption monitoring single phase for homes and some smaller light commercial premises OVERVIEW: The OWL Intuition-e electricity monitoring system comprises of three major components: Electricity monitoring Sensor clamp and wireless Transmitter. Internet interface Network OWL wireless gateway. User interface A web browser or smart phone app. IN THE BOX: WARNING - RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK - Please Refer to User Manual. Network OWL gateway with external antenna Transmitter unit fitted with a standard Sensor clamp (<10mm cable, <71A) Ethernet cable 2 x AA alkaline battery Plug top mains power supply (100-240V AC / 5V DC) 2 Save Energy Limited 2012 with UK and Euro adaptors 1

BEFORE YOU START Please locate and check that you have a spare LAN port available on the back of your broadband Internet router. You will need to plug in the supplied Ethernet cable. If all of the ports are in use, you can add more connections by purchasing an Ethernet Switch / Hub. You will also need a spare mains socket available close by for the supplied Plug top mains power supply. PART NO. CMR180 MADE IN CHINA STEP ONE - Insert batteries into the Transmitter Slide back cover off of the Transmitter and insert the batteries into the unit. Keep the Transmitter with you alongside the Network OWL until Step Six. You should NOT fit the Sensors at this time. INSERT 2 x AA BATTERY STEP TWO - Power up Network OWL Ensure antenna is screwed, finger tight, onto brass connector on side of the Network OWL. Select UK or Euro adaptor as required. Fit to the power supply and rotate 90 until it latches into place. Plug the power supply into the mains and insert the DC jack connector into the base of the Network OWL. The green LED will flash rapidly. After about 30 seconds the blue LED will start a steady flash indicating that it is in Pairing Mode. Quickly move to Step Three. CHECK FINGER TIGHT GREEN LED BLUE LED PLUG IN DC POWER CONNECTOR 2 2 Save Energy Limited 2012

STEP THREE - Pair Transmitter to the Network OWL Ensure the Transmitter is next to the Network OWL. Press the small Check button in the Transmitter PART NO. CMR180 MADE IN CHINA battery compartment until the red LED on the front starts flashing. The Transmitter is now in Check Mode and the red LED on the front will start flashing every 2 seconds (for 30 seconds). The pairing process will now take place and the blue LED will start flashing a fraction of a second after the red LED flashes. When the Transmitter Check Mode finishes, if the pairing was successful, the blue LED will flash every time it receives data from the Transmitter (every 12 to 60 seconds). Replace battery compartment cover. IMPORTANT Pairing Notes & Network OWL Factory Reset: If you don t complete the pairing process within 60 seconds of the Network OWL blue LED starting its steady flash, restart the process by removing and re-inserting the DC power jack. You can quickly check for correct pairing at any time by pressing the Transmitter Check button until the red LED starts flashing - if the Transmitter red LED and Network OWL blue LED flash together they are correctly paired. If you remove / change the Transmitter batteries you will need to remove the existing pairing from the Network OWL and pair the Transmitter again. To clear ALL pairings in the Network OWL including other paired devices such as heating controls, carry out a full Factory Reset as follows: Factory Reset the Network OWL by pressing the reset button while the power is on. Carefully insert a paperclip into the small hole and hold the button pressed for a minimum of 10 seconds and release. The green LED will flash rapidly. After about 30 seconds the blue LED will start a steady flash indicating that it is in Pairing Mode. After each Factory Reset you must go through Step Seven, the Web Dashboard Create Account process again, but ticking Account Exists. RESET BUTTON PRESS CHECK BUTTON PLUG IN ETHERNET CABLE 2 Save Energy Limited 2012 3

STEP FOUR - Connect Network OWL to the Internet Plug the Ethernet cable into the base of the Network OWL and a spare LAN port on your existing broadband Internet router. Ensure the connector latches with an audible click at both ends and that there is activity on the green & yellow LEDs above the Ethernet connector. Ensure so far as possible that there are no large metal objects in the radio (direct) path between installed locations of the Network OWL and the Transmitter. The wireless range is up to 30 metres (free space). Walls and large objects will reduce this range. Note: The table below describes the meanings of the LEDs visible on the front face of the Network OWL. Network OWL LED Meanings LED Pattern Meaning Blue Steady flash following power up N-OWL is in pairing mode Blue Flash every 12 to 60 seconds Data received from paired Transmitter Blue Off for longer than 60 seconds N-OWL is not paired or Transmitter is out of radio range Green Rapid flashing N-OWL is starting up Green Single blip N-OWL is running Green Double blip N-OWL is running & Connected to LAN, DHCP IP address allocated Green Triple blip N-OWL is running & Connected to LAN, DHCP IP address allocated & Connected to OWL servers (N-OWL Online) Green Single long flash Connecting to OWL log servers Green Double long flash Uploading logged data to OWL servers STEP FIVE - Wait 2 mins for Network OWL to come online Once the Ethernet cable has been connected you should see the green LED quickly progress from single blips to double blips. It will now normally take up to 2 minutes for the Network OWL to securely connect to the OWL servers, indicated by a triple blip on the green LED. Do not progress to Step Six until the Network OWL is online. IMPORTANT Internet Connection Notes: The Network OWL can normally connect to the OWL servers when plugged into a normal domestic broadband router which has a default security configuration. If the Network OWL does not connect within 5 minutes: a. Ensure that your Internet connection is working by connecting to a 4 2 Save Energy Limited 2012

b. c. familiar site using your web browser. Check Ethernet cable connections - remove cable and refit a few times at both ends to remove any dust on the connections. Try rebooting your broadband router by powering down for 10 seconds and then power back up. Allow 5 minutes for everything to re-establish itself. IMPORTANT Note for business users: If you wish to use a Network OWL connected to a business / commercial LAN then please note that it is usual for the internal IT Security Department to restrict which Internet ports are open for use. You will need to ensure that ports numbered 5004 and 5222 are opened outbound. Without this the Network OWL will not be able to connect to the OWL servers and your Intuition system will not function. STEP SIX - Install Transmitter and attach Sensor Transmitter Domestic Loads Ring Mains, Lights, Cooker etc Fuse Box / Consumer Unit Sensor WARNING - RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK - Please Refer to User Manual. Utility Meter Live (Brown or Red normally covered with Grey sheath) Alternative Sensor Location Electricity Grid Intuition-e Transmitter & Sensor 2 Save Energy Limited 2012 5

Signal strength indicator Settings icon If the signal strength is only 1 or 2 bars, to reduce the chance of intermittent / inconsistent data reception it is suggested that you reposition the Network OWL so that it is physically closer to the Transmitter. The Network OWL should ideally be hung on the wall in a free area as far from large metal objects as possible. Position the antenna in a vertical orientation. If necessary you can replace the Ethernet cable with a longer cable (up to 100 meters long). If installing a long Ethernet cable is a problem, you can use a Powerline Range Extender or Wireless Range Extender - please search for these common products online. 2 Save Energy Limited 2012 7

INFORMATION & TROUBLE SHOOTING TIPS Unless the Transmitter is in Check Mode, the red LED does not flash, in order to prolong battery life. Check that the blue LED on the Network OWL flashes every 12 seconds if the monitored electricity supply consumption is varying, or every 60 seconds when at a steady state. If the blue LED does not flash then the Transmitter signal is not being received or the Transmitter Pairing has been lost. Undo the Transmitter s Sensor and move them so they are near to the Network OWL to confirm radio range is not an issue. For wireless range testing you can make the Transmitter send its signal every 2 seconds (for 30 seconds) by pressing the Check button in the battery compartment for 10 seconds. The red LED will flash with each transmission, the Network OWL blue LED will flash to confirm the signal has been received. Network OWL Ethernet port LEDs have the following meanings: Green link ok / up; Yellow data activity. 8 2 Save Energy Limited 2012
